"Easy way to navigate and watch different recreation reviews"

4.5/5

What do you like best about Twitch?

I love the style of interactions that Twitch offers. Best of all, it's very easy to create a channel. I like how Twitch is considered the first-class hub for the enjoyment of gaming. Are you satisfied with Twitch? On my video channel, there is always content available and it is developing a lot throughout the day. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Twitch?

It is a long, very busy and lively road for some reason we were trying to add a video that became very small, but kept receiving errors, this happened twice earlier than being able to upload which became a bit concerning. It drives adults away, it is constantly disappointing, however, I am no longer sure what the answer is. This is always disappointing, however, I am not sure what the solution is.

"How Twitch is a reliable, good, and stable streaming service."

5/5

What do you like best about Twitch?

What I like best about Twitch is that its quick, easy, and a very reliable streaming service. It has lots of talented and big streamers/content creators streaming on it. Its a great way to kill time if your watching or streaming yourself. Your friends can access it by a click of a link. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Twitch?

It can be laggy or the stream can buffer alot to stream yourself or while watching others stream, but that isn't always the case. I also dislike the recent rumour of Twitch staff treating female streamers better than male streamers, if it is true it isn't good for the Twitch community. Twitch has had a rough history of bad nsfw streamers/incidents. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Recommendations to others considering Twitch:

Follow the rules of Twitch during streams, select the correct genre/category while streaming, have fun, if you are recording gaming streams use OBS (open broadcaster software). Monitor your chat every so often. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Twitch solving and how is that benefiting you?

I used to stream gaming videos on Twitch, such as Fortnite, Minecraft, Brawlhalla. Overall its great for streaming games and can attract many gamers to watch your stream. My stream sometimes is hard to startup i still havent found a fix thats why i have left it, it could be my computer. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"I streamed on Twitch for a year."

1.5/5

What do you like best about Twitch?

I like the concept of live streaming a lot! Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Twitch?

How the platform is not discoverable at all, making it nearly impossible to grow as a new streamer on the platform. Rules aren't enforced fairly or evenly. They take roughly 50% of all profits and yet still don't offer transcoding to everyone. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Recommendations to others considering Twitch:

It's not a bad platform if you are looking to market with some of the much bigger streamers. If you are looking to stream as a company I would recommend using Mixer. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Twitch solving and how is that benefiting you?

I moved to Mixer and grew more in 1 month than 1 whole year due to their more discoverable nature. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"A very good platform for game streaming"

4/5

What do you like best about Twitch?

For my taste, it is the best platform for streaming, it is very easy to use and fun. The best thing about it is the interaction it has with viewers, whether through donations or paid subscriptions. It requires almost no knowledge. It also has methods to help smaller streamers grow, which consists of passing viewers to another stream. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Twitch?

It is quite difficult to make a living from it, and it is also very difficult to grow followers to a certain point. It may be challenging to use streaming applications like OBS at first since you can set up alerts to make your stream more professional, and it takes a bit of effort.

You need a fairly high-end PC and a good connection to be able to stream with good quality. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Recommendations to others considering Twitch:

It is highly recommended, whether you want to create content or watch it, you have to keep things in mind, such as if you want to create content it won't be easy to grow and generate income, but if you make an effort you will achieve it. It requires a strong connection and a fairly powerful PC to help you support the stream and the game in optimal quality. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Twitch solving and how is that benefiting you?

I have earned money, I have quite a lot of fun talking with the viewers, and it's a good way to pass the time. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Awesome Platform for Gaming Broadcasting"

5/5

What do you like best about Twitch?

Twitch has large audience users that are there 24/7 and it is specialised in gaming broadcasting. It has those chat bot features that you can use to interact with viewers and bring some fun to the show. It also has many features that help with broadcasting like communities, clips and so on. The dashboard has more than enough controls for your broadcast, way beyond what YouTube has to offer. Best of all, it is free to create a channel! Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Twitch?

Twitch does not really have support for new broadcasters, all the great stuff can only be obtained by high viewer channels. It also regulates your channel name which can be annoying when you can register the name of your choice or change the name. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Recommendations to others considering Twitch:

Twitch can be an awesome platform when comes to gaming broadcasting, but it is very very competitive. There are just too many broadcasters on Twitch, so it is very hard to get some viewers on your channel without advertising. Share your Twitch channel on your social media and try to be funny on your broadcasts, that's how we've got our viewers. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Twitch solving and how is that benefiting you?

We need a broadcasting platform to show our gaming broadcasting efforts and Twitch has provided us with the perfect environment for this. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Making Gaming Fun"

4.5/5

What do you like best about Twitch?

I love the variety of interactions that Twitch offers. The varied channels and outlets that it has are awesome! The way that you can connect with others that are passionate about the same things is incredible. I've enjoyed getting involved in the chats with people sometimes more than the stream itself. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Twitch?

The entry point to start streaming is a little high, but it's coming down. Getting to the point of being able to stream your game is time-consuming. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Recommendations to others considering Twitch:

Go for it! Jump in with both feet. The value comes for getting involved. Connect with other users. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Twitch solving and how is that benefiting you?

Being able to stream your games is a ton of fun. The number one benefit I've found is just connecting with other people who are passionate about what I'm passionate about. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
